[QUOTE="pwatts, post: 719241, member: 146"] I've the same issue in my new flat. There are plenty of articles on AVS and Gearslutz, but in short you need a) mass and b) a good seal. If you can build a raised threshold at the bottom it will help too, then get some doorseals. Genesis sells them at a price. For mass, I saw guys building laminates of e.g. 12mm MDF, hollow cavity with sand, 12mm MDF, rockwool cavity, 12mm MDF, bitumen layer, 12mm MDF, all held with Green Glue. Of course this means a strong frame and a strong few hinges.. and a lot of power to open. In China I saw a steel door at a home cinema that was amazing, all hell was loose at the inside (103dB) but outside you don't hear a thing. [/QUOTE]
